Chapter 128: Fu Xie's Death

Zhang Fei was injured, so Liu Bei led Guan Yu and Huang Zhong to each lead 5,000 elite soldiers and waved their troops to divide Nanjun and Jiangxia. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info Zhao Ci's main force is gathered in Nanyang, and it is expected that there will not be too many waves in Nanjun and Jiangxia.

Huang Zhong is a native of Nanyang, and Guan Yu has also been in Jingzhou for a long time. The time and place are favorable, and if he can't take the two counties, Liu Bei will have serious doubts.

Here in Nanyang, Liu Bei was not idle, and asked Yan Yan and others to lead the army every day, shouting outside the city, and maintaining pressure on the rebels in the city at any time. Zhang Fei's injury made Liu Bei angry. He decided that after the city was broken, he would definitely not let Zhao Ci go.

Zhao Ci is not having a good time in the city. Ordered to shoot Zhang Fei that day, although it almost succeeded, but it also made the soldiers under his command see the cold-blooded and cruel side of their own coach. For many years, the Pao Ze brothers gave up when they said they gave up, and killed when they said they would kill.

Everyone in the army was terrified. People's hearts are flesh and blood, who doesn't want their generals to love soldiers like sons? Who wants to be just a pawn ready to be discarded?

The army's morale is unstable, and Zhao Ci's general orders are difficult to execute. When the order is lowered, it will most likely be discounted or delayed. This has never been done before. Zhao Ci took the opportunity to attack and beheaded several people in a row, but it did not get better. So he spent the whole day in the house, drinking and venting his anger.

Not long after, Guan Yu took Nanjun, Huang Zhong took Jiangxia, and after leaving a garrison in Jiangling and Xiling, he waved his army back. They were joined by thousands of other families. They are all family members of the Nanyang rebels.

Xun Yu was shocked when he learned this, so he came to ask Liu Bei: "Lord, how did you arrest innocent people?" ”

When Liu Bei heard this, he was surprised: "Wen Ruo, how can you say that you are innocent? These people are all relatives of the rebels in Wancheng, and they are all sins that are unforgivable, how can they be innocent? ”

Xun Yu said: "The lord has always put the people first, and I hope not to make Wancheng mourn all over the wilderness." ”

Liu Bei knew that Xun Yu had seen through his plan, so he sighed: "Wen Ruo, how can a city cry like a number of counties? Rest assured, I am not a man who has neglected the lives of others. ”

On the second day, Zhao Ci looked at the black crowd under Wancheng who were shouting for his father, only to feel a cool air rising from the soles of his feet, rushing straight to his head, looking at the anxious soldiers on the left and right, and couldn't help gritting his teeth and saying: "What a ruthless method!" ”

Liu Bei took Nanjun and Jiangxia, not only to cut off Zhao Ci's back road, but also to search for their families in Jiangxia. Although this thing was a little unkind, Liu Bei was also forced to do it. Besides, he didn't drive these people's families to attack the city, but just took them out to threaten Zhao Cijun.

The effect is surprisingly good, in the case that Liu Bei personally stepped out and repeatedly promised that only the evil will be punished, and the rest will not be investigated. That night, Wancheng was in turmoil, the city gate was broken, and countless sergeants, under the leadership of their own captains and military marquis, came to Liu Bei's camp to surrender. Zhao Ci and a few others committed suicide in the house.

Liu Bei saw the bodies of Zhao Ci and others, ordered them to be buried, and released Zhao Ci and the other family members on the spot, and gave some money and silk, so that the old and young could live in peace. When the surrendered army saw it, the cheers were thunderous, and a hanging heart was completely calmed down.

The three counties are peaceful, the court is on the table, the court is troubled in Jingzhou, and the edict ordered Liu Bei to return to Jingzhou, not a few, Wuling is barbarian and rebellious, Jingzhou assassin Wang Min went out to Nanyang, please Liu Beijun to break it.

At this time, the world is quite peaceful except for Si Li. There is chaos in Liangzhou, and when Xianbei comes to enter the two states, the remnants of Qing, Yan, Ji, and Xu Huangjin rise and fall, echoing each other. Although Jiaozhou and Yizhou are not worried, they are isolated from the Central Plains Guanshan and have their own system. If there is no big mess and can still pay tribute and blood transfusion to the imperial court at any time, the only ones are Yuzhou and Yangzhou.

The central government is unable to make ends meet, and the authoritarian rivers are declining, but the Son of Heaven is still addicted to pleasures in the back and palace. Everyone in the world who has a little insight is worried.

In the winter of October, the former lieutenant Zhang Yan wrote a book, angered the eunuchs, was besieged by the eunuchs, and was imprisoned and died.

Taiwei Zhang Wen levied and sent 3,000 cavalry from Wuhuan in Youzhou, and Gongsun Zhan was brave and martial arts, and he was the commander of the cavalry, so that he led the army to help Liangzhou. Not long after, due to the lack of military rations, the Wuhuan cavalry mutinied and rebelled back to the county.

Liu Bei saw all this, but he was forced by the situation and could only stand by and watch. has the vision of an era ahead, bringing him not only happiness, but also great pain. He knew a lot, but he was limited by his own strength, and he could only watch these things that had happened and continue to happen. And nothing can be done. This feeling is very bad.

Fortunately, he can still comfort himself that when he grows up, he will definitely end this troubled era ahead of schedule, there will be no Three Kingdoms, there will be no Wuhu Chaohua, and there will only be the revival of the Han Dynasty.

Adhering to this concept, Liu Bei was in Jingzhou, restrained the sergeants, practiced diligently, and vigorously tuntian. Prepare for the upheaval in a few years. Jingzhou Thorn Shi was very satisfied with Liu Bei's attitude. He felt that there were not many people like Liu Bei, who could not only help him stabilize the chaos in Jingzhou, but also rarely interfere in local affairs. What a righteous minister! Who would have thought that Liu Bei was only preparing for the death of the emperor, and as for local government affairs, such a tedious and extremely energy-consuming matter, Liu Bei would not interfere in it. If you really interfere, if you don't get it right, there will be a big problem.

In December, due to the lack of progress in the war in Liangzhou, the imperial court enlisted Zhang Wen to return to Beijing.

In the spring of the fourth year of Zhongping, the world was amnesty every year as usual.

In February, Xingyang thieves rose up and killed Mou Ling. Henan Yin He Miao was ordered to recruit Xingyang thieves, break them, and worship He Miao as the general of the chariot cavalry. There are people in the court who are good officials, He is a relative of the He family, He Jin is a general, in charge of the government, He Miao is a general of the chariot and cavalry, and he is a noble position. For a while, everyone in Beijing was envious, and they wished that they had a good daughter who was like a flower and jade, and then they were taken by the emperor, and the whole family soared to the sky since then.

On this day, Liu Bei was hunting outside the camp, and suddenly a personal soldier came to report that someone from Liangzhou came. Liu Bei didn't know what was going on in Liangzhou, so he led his entourage back to the camp in a hurry.

When I arrived at the camp, I saw a young man of more than ten years old, unkempt and dusty, followed by dozens of family members. As soon as he saw Liu Bei, he bowed his head and wept silently: "Uncle......"

Liu Bei was stunned, picked it up and took a closer look, isn't this Fu Nanrong's only son? When I sat down with Nan Rong to talk about it, this kid was also next to me, so to speak...... Liu Bei said badly, and said hurriedly: "Yanlin, why are you here?" ”

Fu Gan cried so much that his throat was hoarse, and he cried intermittently: "Uncle, my father has been martyred in Hanyang, before the city was broken, the chief bookkeeper Yang Gong led the soldiers to escort me out of the city, and I followed my father's orders, all the way south to Jingzhou, to vote for my uncle......"

Liu Bei's heart shook wildly, Fu Xie and Fu Nanrong, are you still dead in battle, it's a pity!

Liu Bei picked up Fu Gan, soothed with kind words, and then said softly: "Yanlin, you will follow me in the future, sooner or later, I will personally raise the army and return to Liangzhou to avenge your father!" ”

When Liu Bei first arrived in Liangzhou, he had several encounters with Fu Xie, and after a few talks, the two admired each other and were impressed by each other's knowledge, so they made a bet. When Liu Bei left Liangzhou, he also specially recommended Fu Xie to Zhang Wen, who would have thought that this farewell would be separated forever. How not to deplore!

Fu Gan lost his father when he was a teenager, and he traveled thousands of miles, he was already physically and mentally exhausted, and when he saw Liu Bei this time, a little heart was completely put down, and after chatting with Liu Bei for a while, he fell asleep.

Liu Bei knew that Fu Gan was tired, and he talked about a child, no matter how smart he was, some things were not clear. So he summoned the Fu family's family to inquire in the future, and Liu Bei found out the cause and effect of this question.

It turned out that Liangzhou was in chaos, and the history of Liangzhou thorns was changed like a marquee. After the former Liangzhou Assassin Yang Yong was dismissed, the current Liangzhou Assassin is Geng Contempt. Geng Contempt is a person who also started with military merits, and has always looked down on literati and scholars such as Song Xiao and Yang Yong. So after succeeding to the throne, he levied the sons of the six counties and wanted to break the Jincheng thieves with a large army. Thus the first war settled Liangzhou.

I have to say that Geng's contempt is a very good idea. However, although he is familiar with military affairs, he is on the way to employing people, appointing people as relatives, and after he arrives, he is engaged in Cheng Qiu, Cheng Qiu is corrupt, suppresses dissidents, and does all kinds of evil. The crowd was engaged in admonishing Geng Contempt, but Geng Contempt was stubborn and self-serving, and he couldn't listen to his opinions. It's just a blind pet to the Cheng ball. So Cheng Qiu became more and more arrogant and unscrupulous, and Liangzhou was loyal and centrifuged.

In the summer and April of this year, Geng contempt raised troops to fight for Jincheng. Fu Xie said: "The rule of the monarch is getting shallow day by day, and people don't know how to teach...... And when the thieves hear that the army is coming, they will be united. The border soldiers are brave, and their edges are difficult to bear, and the new people, up and down, have not been reconciled, in case of internal changes, although there is no regret. If you don't stop the army and cultivate morality, you will be punished if you are rewarded, and if you are lenient, you will be called cowardly, and the evil will dispute, and its departure will be inevitable. Then lead the people who have been taught, please the thieves who have left, and their merits can be sat and waited......" These words, if Liu Bei listens to them, he will definitely praise them, a proper and cool policy. What Fu Xie predicted in it was confirmed one by one in the future.

It's a pity that Geng Contempt is so focused on military exploits that he doesn't listen to it. So he took Cheng Qiu and led the army all the way along Hanyang. Cheng Qiu is in the army, responsible for military merits, food and grass, and everyone complains about his unfairness and grievances. Sure enough, Cheng Qiu got this oil and water position, which made it easier for him to get his hands on it, but Geng Contempt didn't care about it. The soldiers dared to be angry but did not dare to speak. When the soldiers arrived at Longxi Di Dao, the soldiers couldn't bear it, so they made a mess overnight, first chopping Cheng Qiu into meat sauce, and then beheading the stabbing Shi Geng who came to reprimand.

After venting, everyone was dumbfounded. It doesn't matter if you kill Cheng Qiu, but just now I had a hot brain and killed the assassin Shi too. That's the end of it. Cheng Qiu was a local official in Liangzhou, while Assassin Shi was a member of the party appointed by the imperial court. Now he has become a traitor. The purpose of the previous army was to quell the rebellion, which is a big joke.

After thinking about it, I thought about it, and I didn't come up with a countermeasure. So a few leaders discussed, and there was no way out. went to fight Jincheng Han Sui Bian Zhang again, and he had no name. simply rebelled, and returned to the division to defeat Hanyang. Then he partnered with Han Sui, Bian Zhang and others.

So everyone agreed, waving the army to take Hanyang.
